I was observing that they aren't fast sellers here either, which I think is somewhat proof that there's a certain pricepoint where what people want and what people say they want are two different things, and that's about $40 I'd say.
I got 2... Some stores have none on the shelves however I did a DPCI check at a store devoid of TIE's just out of curiosity and there they were in the back it said, so I dunno what to think about this one. Clearance-bound they may be, which I sorta am hoping for so I can get a 3rd one (or more if they're cheap enough).
When the ARC-170 didn't move well at $30 I really began to think that ships are a dead thing for Star Wars. An all-new and fairly nicely done ship for $30's a rarity for Hasbro, and for it to just sit there at that price is the kinda thing that is a death nail for future hopes. The TIE's not gonna help matters even though I do believe it is overpriced personally.
I love the TIE but in my area I'd say I usually see one at every Target, one Target has 2 out still I'm sure, and then this one with none on the shelves had them in the back (or so the compy says). That's not boding well for it.
